When I was younger and had more energy I really wanted to create a Burning Man theme camp that featured giant tents hosting every sort of vice and debauchery imaginable: gambling, booze, kinky sex, you name it, and then one night have it all be destroyed by a giant angry Turtle robot with a flamethrower

Several years ago, my family and I were traveling (business trip for me, but we decided to go as a family). First morning in the fancy old downtown hotel, I look out the window, and saw a bunch of people running. I let out an audible, "hmph, how about that."

Mrs. Un: "What's happenuing?"

Me: "Well, either a road race, or Godzilla is attacking the city. But nobody is doing this <insert image of me pantomiming terrified citizens pointing upward and screaming>, so I think it's a road race."

Yep, some of my favorite MST3Ks are the Gamara films. The parallel bar Gymkata bit... Anyways, for Gamara fans, I'd suggest checking out the late 90's reboot of the series, Guardian of the Universe and Revenge of Iris has Gyaos return as the adversary. Legion has Gamara up against a plague swarm of alien insects. All three are pretty solid in the SFX department for rubber monster movies.

However, avoid the Gamara the Brave movie at all costs! It's a total Godzuki/Scrappy-doo fest with about 15 minutes total of proper monster-a-monster battle. Ok... well, the fighting is actually pretty good, so maybe rent and fast forward through the lame bits.

Grandpa Borgnine:it might come down to who was hosting when you first started watching it Thats my theory.

Sorry, I started on Joel -- I find the later episodes are quite simply funnier -- much better laughs.

I know of nothing in the earlier series as funny as "Final Justice" or "Final Sacrifice" or "Space Mutiny" or the last 3rd of "Boggy Creek II". And the Rifftrax folks are fantastic on "Captain America the First Avenger"
